My experience with the v2 leak sensors is that they often don’t tell you when there is a connectivity issue.

> I purchased and installed Wyze water sensors 3 years ago. The wyze app shows all devices are normal and online. Never received an alert. I found that we had $10,000 in water damage that was never alerted as the device doesn’t work. I took the probe and put it in a glass of water and still didnt alert.

Others seem to have similar and varied issues. If they work when you test them, great. But will they work in X weeks or months when you need them to?

> If leak sensor offline (little cloud with a line through it icon), Wyze App should ALERT notification to phone. Otherwise human goes about human business for days not knowing leak sensor is not reporting anything to hub. Leak sensor is effectively a doorstop, and if leak happens while it is offline, human will not know about leak. Human is not going to open Wyze App every hour to check if sensor is still online.
